I remember trying to teach myself a lesson about calming down and not overthinking anything. Just because Dani didn't email me back within 2 day doesn't mean she doesn't care nor does that mean my email isn't working. Even asking her if my email was working wasn't the best course of action, but I hope to recover from that.

Her MSN doesn't work again so we're back to emails again.

I bailed on Forensic Psych because I felt like crap after Abnormal Psych. too bad because I wanted to be all over the interrogation lecture. Something was wrong yesterday. A very incorrect status quo has been going on as of late.

No idea what.

Maybe because it's the fact I'm back in February.

Now I don't have anything to complain about. The original instinctive act has long since faded and my last relationship was nothing to write home about. I'm here with a clean slate...which is nice. Let me figure out Dani's position on Valentines Day before I out myself about being in the "Anti Valentines Day League."  

Dani just said “Pan's Labyrinth” was awesome if a little creepy/squirmy sometimes. She also gave "Winter Passing" high marks because she expected/enjoyed the weirdness that ensued. I still haven't had the time to rent it and watch it. I should stop renting things if I know I won't get the time to watch them. I never got to see "Serpico" or "Sliding Doors." It might be "No Late Fees" but staff are held to a little higher standard of care...and that "Eight Days or Death" rule for us has never been the greatest thing.

Once again...of course that last House episode was good...It's House! I don't know how many people I have to tell that to.

Done? Done...i think the Meta Sovereign(my corrupter villain of CoV) needs to reek some havoc on the unsuspecting populous.  

The title is from "Peace and Hate" from The Submarines.

Work was work. I should really learn to actually read my hours once I write them down. They like it when I show up at 4 for a 7:00 shift, but they can't shaft me out of my three hours.

I'm this close to changing the colour, to closing the case. I'll give it a week(being the 10th) to make any decisions. I just have to stop over thinking the green girl again. Always leads me to problems.

It's been a weird week and the month is guaranteed to get weirder and more difficult. I'm just not the dating type. I just exist and hope for a relationship to crack my over the skull...speaking of that, I also find it hard to believe it's been a year since I started going out with Elizabeth.

My internal clock simply doesn't read a year.

The Firm Crew got together tonight because Angela is on the mainland for a couple days. I wasn't in the mood to be social. It takes a lot. Suhki wondered when I was going to hold the party for Mark's birthday at my place. I informed him it was the first I'd heard of it. Suhki was talking with others and they said "Of course we can hang at *Cleric's* house!" They can...I have no problem with that. They just have to tell me first!  

On another issue, I don't want to close the case because such actions cause moments of weakness and a said moment of weakness will lead me to doing thing that I will regret and my co-workers will never speak to me. Well...one might...but it would be creepy.

I don't want it to be creepy.

 Villain Safeguard missions should be way more fun...but I got hammered left right and center. My team failed. Boooo. The Meta Sovereign should be ashamed of his metal self. His battle cry became "Hail to the King, Baby" but I'll change it.

Done? (Sigh)

Done.

4-12:30 close tomorrow.

-Cleric 

Officially and unequivocally Operation California is Classified Most Secret

Why after so long?

Frankly, I don't even know what's going on.

When a girl calls you a "great penis"(negative connotation) you generally believe she is sincere. Still, I don't think my actions worked against me.

"That how I roll."

It might even become my catchphrase. I don't know who left that in the notes in my rental account. Probably Todd simply because it wasn't Stargate related(Staci), it did not mention animals like pandas or monkeys(Britany) and it didn't mention my name was spelt right(Head Office)

That and "That's how I roll" and any form of is probably from "Spinal Tap" which I haven't seen yet. Everytime I work with Todd I ask him "Have you seen Seven yet?" and he asks me "Have you seen "Spinal Tap" yet?"

No on both counts.

I should be worried about my mental state after being on the CoH Virtue RP Server.  I'm dangerously close to making my character an RPer. This is wrong for two reasons:

a) RPing is such an Elizabeth Thing(Remember that Spike/Angel one her and Staci never got off the ground?)
b) Along the same lines, I'm a female hero in the game and I'm close to Rping with her. That's just creepy. At the time with Elizabeth however I did joke "Hey! I could be Fred!"

Even though I'm not actually RPing, I'll answer comments in character. Which by the way, is a British born ice mage with a bow. (sigh)

right, worried.  Who wouldn't be?

Saint joked yesterday that I should carry it to the extreme and *ugh* flirt. Which is creepy by itself, made creepier by the fact Saint is suggesting it.

I'm going to go. I need to get a haircut and they just posted "First Strike."

*squee* I just didn't do that.

-Cleric 

...

No haircut. I feel shaggier than usual. I won't say I'll get one tomorrow being a plan is a list of things that don't happen.

Two midterms tomorrow I really don't feel like taking.

Why am I saying tomorrow? It's 2:23 Wednesday morning so it is today. Like I said before: I don't register a day change until I sleep.

Most of the Crew went out for dinner for Mark's birthday. You know, I considered ending this story with a phrase something along the lines like "I had a good time with Staci" and that has an odd connotation to it.

 "Connotation" has to be my favourite word in the English language.

Green Girls respond well to cheesy e-cards: Classified Most Secret.  You know, I considered blacking out parts of an entry just like censored mail during War Time. That'd be cool.  So we're not going to see "Children of Men" simply because a friend from out of town wants to see it Saturday. Whether or not I believe that story, we'll see something else. Come on, when was the last time someone lied to me in an email. I think it was roughly 3 years ago. Oh burn. I don't even know if this'll count as a date. I've gone to movies with girls before (ie. The McCollum Girl and "The Village" ugh) and it has been a royal clusterfuck. My adviser doesn't want to get my hopes up, so she's unsure of her intentions.

Man, Coloured Pronouns rock. Everyone in the world should be colour coded. Life would be so much easier. Colours are wonderful.

Done? Done. I have to go to stress out about my academics.

-Cleric-  

Mmmm: Deb Talan's "Tenderness." Who messed her up to get those lyrics? Wow.

By the By: First Strike rocked socks. Look at em'..all Rocked.

...

Looking back at it, I've tagged every single entry with 2006 instead of the proper month. I haven't used "2007" in a single entry in 2007.

See? This is the problem when I do my own titles and timestamps. For some reason I think 2007 sounds weird. It's sad to think I'm stuck in 2006. Not like that was a particularly good year for me.  

2006 was...different. I'll stick by that.

Why am I suddenly discussing a year that has long since past? I guess it's because I never did a formal "End of Year" entry. I'm not going to.

I'm less stressed about my academics today and I swear I'll never let tests creep up on me like this again. I'm a natural for these sort of things and as long as I've been in class absorbing the information I tend to come out on the top half of things.

Of course, this only applies to interesting psych and crim courses. Stats and other boring social sciences can bite me. Which they do on a regular basis.  

If only Maldroid was on Itunes, then I could actually buy "Heck No/I'll never listen to techno" All these other things require US Billing addresses which I lack.

Wow. I can't believe this entry was going to be a rant about class. No so much.

I'm done...and tired. I'm always tired.

-Cleric 

Maybe because it's February. Maybe because I'm forgetting the big moments, I simply do not care...for whatever reason: I'm back into John Mayer. I take back any and all remarks(and there were alot) regarding the "John Mayer Trio." After sampling "Try!" for a while I bought the whole thing. Mostly because of the live cover versions of "Heavier Things" and "Continuum" songs I enjoy, but Mayer doing Ray Charles is pretty darn cool to.

Too bad "Hearts So Heavy" wasn't on it. Not like it matters, I already have it.

Oh. New Gin Blossom album. I bought a couple tracks. Maybe I'll actually buy the psychical album for that one.

Considering I'll erase the previous entry I should summarize my Wednesday.

Haircut as planned and now I have Patricia schedule updated. The standard haircut day will become a Thursday. It's shorter than what I'm used to, but anything is shorter than what I was running around with previous. I left early for class and I ended up spending some time in the student lounge with a coffee and a chicken salad sandwich watching Star Trek Voyager on Spike. By the way, the lounge Tv is nice. Even nicer than the projector in the Surrey Lounge...but they have a coffee bar. It evens out.

In between that I studied for the abnormal psych test. Omar and I probably both failed but for us that's a good thing. We tend to bomb tests near the end of the semester and if that's a 25% final, it's better to bomb now to get it out of the way. We like Spaulding(the prof) but she's no Froc.

Frankly, who is? No one. That's who.

I noticed in the erased entry it had no colour. So to compensate:

To talk about Staci would be a little weird and after watching Crank, Saint taught me a few more girl related words*. A very weak and weary Cleric had some odd** thoughts on the busride home. Which is too long. I remember the crap I would come up with in eight minutes...but forty?

Wow.

Messed Up. I'm going to have to find a way to write it out of me.

I must work out a system where I ration the number of emails I sent Dani. Daily correspondence is uncalled for at this point. I can't think of enough things to talk about without repeating it or going into Movie Geek Mode. I get paid for that so there's no need to do it for free. Most people would consider that a sign not to proceed, but the last girl I had a lot in common with didn't work out so well. I'm trying something different.

Different can be good.

Britany has been working at "Battalion Head" for the past weeks. She's eager to return to the "Trenches." Funny, "The Pit" hasn't been cleaner and Britany hasn't been in. That's odd.

I snapped a caster off of Pyro's chair. I owe him a new one. $200 chair.

I'm going to redo my static playlists today. The "Firm Beats" one really needs some serious work.

PLAYLIST(All Filler...no "Killers": I hate those guys!)

Maybe later.

-Cleric

* I didn't know what a "Camisole" was. I always thought those were cool(ie that one Josie Maran pic) "Booty Shorts" also came up.
** "Odd" isn't the right word, but the right world wouldn't be cool

Work was work. Thankfully uneventful. I just want to comment on the regular customers who think I care, I do. Of course I do, just not to the extent you think I do. I must deal with 20+ regulars and keeping everyone's story straight is difficult at best.

I have to ask myself what the people at Bux think of me...

Tip well? Easy drink order? Don't blab on?

Meh.

I've been find it hard to get entries off the ground as of late. This could be attributed to two things:

1) Nothing worth writing about has happened
2) CoH has been sucking my brain out

I'll go with the latter.

Hmmm, it didn't appear evident in the last entry, but I had a good time with my chicken sandwich, coffee and Voyager. I'm such a geek. It should be noted it wasn't even a Voyager episode I usual enjoy: That pair of time travel ones set in the "past""present" with Sarah Silverman? I can't remember the name...future, something. I laugh at Star Trek episodes set in the "past/present" simply because it saves money on certain set construction.

 Why no playlist like I promised? My Ipod errored out and I had to reset it. No biggie.

"Alien Nation" rocks. I used to watch the show.

Done? done.

-Cleric 

You know, for someone who's entire internet persona is based on being in the "Grey Area" I only really have two modes of operation:

Either I'm head over-heels or fucking pissed off. I'm not that misogynistic, but somedays...just a little bit. I like women alot. Maybe that's my problem.

"Nothing defines humans better than their willingness to do irrational things in the pursuit of phenomenally unlikely payoffs. This is the principle behind lotteries, dating and religion."

-Scott Adams-

 I'm probably going to retire the entire colour system simply because, eventually everyone is going to be white.

The younger cleric would have probably killed himself by now. The New Cleric* doesn't give a flying fuck.

Oh, sorry about the swearing. I just finished watching "The Departed"(perks) and according to the IMDB "Fuck" and it's variations are said about 237. I have to stop working myself up about movies simply because very rarely will it ever, EVER live up to what I want. "Children of Men" probably would be another one on that list. The reason I enjoyed "Casino Royale" so much was because I thought Daniel Craig couldn't do it.  By the way: Couple of points regarding the movie....

SPOILERS WILL FOLLOW!  

1. I can see why Marky Mark is up for Supporting Actor. Acting off of everyone(Baldwin, Sheen, Damon, DiCaprio, etc), He was good. Just like William Hurt in "History of Violence," it seemed like he was barely in it. Except at the end.
   
2. It ended like Hamlet. What does that tell you? 
3. How are they going to do a sequel? There's no one left! A prequel is even ruled out because you can't go back any farther!!!
4. God I'm angry!**

SPOILERS END!

Work...(sigh) another long shift with the Lt. Always yields awesome stories. I developed an official "awkward transaction" scale for work. While the full details of the scale are classified, it's based on 5 criteria which get scored on a 10 point scale. Highest possible score is 50 multiplied by two to get an "awkward percentage."

I don't know. "The New Math" sounds like an awesome band name, but it has to be already taken. I should look into that.  

Done? Done. I'm going to go suck my brain out. Lvl 12 baby!

-Cleric 

* The New Cleric has been standing for just over a year now. Not so new.
** Not my problem with the movie, I just am.
